The EP/Tonka game in a couple of weeks will be a tell for me. MG beat EP on strong second half play but clearly was the better team and didn't make as many mistakes as EP. Tonka looked like a bruising squad in their win against Moorhead. If EP can beat Tonka then I believe the wildcard is...
Looking down the road, the Minnetonka at EP game, if players stay healthy, is going to be a slubberknocker, old school, smash mouth football experience.
Too many mental penalties for EP. MG score just before 1st half due to an unsportsman penalty. Second half showed MG explosiveness with really quick RB's and a QB that could throw the rock. EP QB not a passer like MG QB. EP needs work on their right side defense, but they will be competitive...
I guess the question I have is how are trainers handling DT in terms of during the week activity, pre game warm up/stretching, nutrition and hydration before games. It seems he has a chronic hammy situation or is impacted by preparation before games.
